RB67 polaroid back

[Anglekat]

Hi All,

I would like to try a polaroid back on my RB67 Pro S, but unfortunatly would not know one end of one from the other. So any advive on this would be very welcome.

I found this a couple of days ago :

Would this be a good buy & is it suitable for currently available films?

Thanks,

Ken.

They often sell for very little on ebay. Less than £20 sometimes.

I didn't look at the link but just to let you know, you need a P adapter with the Polaroid back. Sometimes they sell them on ebay without the adapter I think. Maybe some backs have the adapter built in. I'm not an expert so just check into that if you don't know the answer. Ric.

OK, thanks for the advice.

£70 does seem a lot compared to what has appeared on Ebay over the last couple of days, there is a few going for around the £35 mark.

One of those for sale appears to come with the P adaptor.

Thanks again,

Ken.

Do you need the P adapter for the NPC polaroid back?

If you just want to try it out, I have one which you could borrow (and perhaps buy later if you wanted it).

I have never used it but It must have the P adaptor - at least, I managed to get it to fit my camera!

EDIT: And the only currently available (new) films are the FP100 series from Fujifilm.
